License Money Goes Short Distance Toward Meeting the Cost of Liquor-made Crime
By Earl H. Haydock, ’14
In the arena of American politics there are many ideas and reforms, but nothing is more certain than that men and parties are fast coming to see that the dominant issue is the legalized liquor traffic.
Entrenched behind fifty-two years of protection by our government, and as many years of indulgence by the voter, the liquor trust today stands as the most powerful monopoly in the world. Only to John Barleycorn are the American (Continued on page 2)

The A. W. S. Girls Pledge Presence at Football Games to Root for U. S. C. Victory
The girls of the University of Southern California have pledged themselves to back the Varsity football team to the end. and in the executive committee meeting of A. W. S. voted to continue the customs of previous years in regard to a girl’s rooting section.
There will be a definite section on the bleachers set apart for the girls corresponding to the men’s rooting section. In so doing a concerted action is brought about in the songs and veils which is absolutely necessary to organized rooting. Girls’ rooting hats are being sold by the A. W. S. committee for seventy-five cents. Those wishing them are asked to sign the list in Miss Webster’s office, and it is expected that all the girls will provide themselves with these hats.
Yellow chrysanthemums will be sold at the U. s. C. gates Saturday before the game and every loyal U. S. C. girl is expected to wear one and come ready to back our team to a glorious victory.
The members of the Junior Class in Railroad Engineering are undertaking a practical problem in railway construction, when they are to survey and make complete plans for a scenic road through a mountainous district, with depots, freight yards, and large trestles over deep canyons.
The members of the class are now busily engaged in running their line for this road, which is to be an extension of the West Forty-eighth Street car line from the intersection of Fifty-fourth and Mesa Drive to a point over two miles distant, across the Baldwin Hills. There are two or three deep canyons in tlie path of the road, which will necessitate the con struction of large steel bridges and trestles, also a great deal of earth work is encountered, in order to ob tain the desired grade through the hills. The topography of this district is such that many other difficult problems in railway construction will pre sent themselves to the young' engi neers before they complete their stupendous task this year.
At one point it is the plan to con struct a large freight yard, with some twelve or more tracks and an adequate freight depot. Although this road is to be scenic in character, the engineers are making preparations to handle a considerable amount of freight over the line.’ This involves the selection of a suitable place in the hills which will be satisfactory for freight yard purposes, with the lowest grades possible.
At the farther end of the line there will be a large hotel, designed according to the latest styles of modern architecture. This hotel will be in the center of the mountains, and it is the intention to establish the place as a health resort. Its proximity to Los Angeles and its connection by a scenic railway no doubt would make it a (Continued on Page 4)
Deed and Pass Resolutions
When students of the University assembled for the eight o’clock classes yesterday morning, they were amazed at the flaming spectacle presented by an unknown artist, who daubed the Soph numerals on the athletic field fence and on the sidewalk in front of the offices.
The Sophomores were quite a bit wrought up over the matter, not because they objected to the exhibition of their trademark, but because the huge yellow smear was posted by an unknown quantity without the permission of the class.
A stormy indignation meeting was held by the class yesterday, during which all forms of punishment—from ducking to annihilation — were suggested by the huffy members of ’17 as fitting for the raving culprit who so unfortunately misused the sacred class numerals.
What the attitude of the class actually is toward the would-be joker is best shown by the following resolution which was unanimously adopted at the meeting yesterday:
“Whereas, some corrupted mut (whether upper or lower classman we (Continued on Page 4)

S. U. S. C. rally committee last night.
Men representing all phases of student and University life are to be on the rostrum, that they may enlighten and enthuse the students aB to their duty next Saturday. Those w’ho will Bpeak are Professor Paul Arnold, chairman of the Faulty Committee on Athletics; Howard Angus, writer on amateur athletics for the Lob Angeles Times; Professor Hugh Willett, principal of the Academy and an old-time member of the Student Body; Howard Drew, sporting editor of the Daily; Coaches Ralph Glaze and “Owl” Irvine, Captain Tommy Davis, and the men, and lastly will appear President George F. Bovard, who needs no introduction.
The yells and songs will be led by Hilary Harkness and “Bill” Dallas. The program, which in detail follows, will include the first appearance of the U. S. C. band.
